Multiplicity of Attributes

The Multiplicity field on the General tab of the Properties view for an Attribute indicates whether TIBCO Business Studio needs to allow for multiple copies of an Attribute.

For example, a purchase order Class could allow for only one po_ number Attribute but multiple line_items Attributes.

The lightbulb icon by the field indicates that content assistance is available. Press Ctrl+space to display a list of the possible values for the Multiplicity field.

The following table describes the available multiplicity indicators:

Indicator Meaning
0..1 Zero or 1
1 One
1..* One or more
0..* Zero or more
n Where n is greater than 1
0..n Zero to n where n is greater than 1
1..n One to n where n is greater than 1
